What is Microblading?

Microblading is a form of permanent make up that create natural looking eyebrows with a hand held microblade.

It originated from Asia over 20 years ago, also known as eyebrow embroidery, feather touch and micro stroking.

Micro blading is a form of eyebrow tattooing, unlike traditional tattooing that uses a machine, microblade artists apply each hairstroke with a hand held microblade. This creates very fine lines that when the pigment is implanted resembles hair. It’s Perfect for those who have over plucked, have patchy brows & want more definition and no longer want to keep applying brow make up!

However there are many other reasons for this treatment, many suffer with hair loss for different reasons like illness, Alopecia, stress, anxiety, cancer and this treatment can be truly life changing for so many people.

How long do they last? Are they permanent?

The degree of permanency varies with each person. The shade/tone will alter and fade over several months in all cases. They will lighten/fade and alter in hue. No pigment implanted in to the skin will stay the same which is why it’s called semi permanent. It is however always in the skin permanently even if it cannot be seen.

To keep the brows looking great and the colour looking fresh it’s very important to have your annual top ups every 12-18 months.

What to expect in your consultation

In your consultation I will explain the treatment, discuss expectations and what you are wanting to achieve then create a treatment plan. You will need to complete medical history forms that need to answered fully and honestly as there are some medications or health problems that can affect the treatment, prevent you having the treatment, affect healing and end result!

I will carry out a scratch test (patch test) for the pigment and anaesthetic to reduce the risk of allergies.

Pre Treatment Advice

Waxing should be performed 48 hours before. Electrolysis no less than 5 days before.

Eyebrow tinting should not be performed for less than two weeks before.

Do not drink alcohol the night before the treatment.

You will not be able to apply make up for 24 hours after treatment

The Treatment

At your appointment I will run through your forms again and refresh on what we discussed at you consultation.

Measure and draw on your brows this will be a template for the micro blading and creating beautiful brows.

Apply numbing cream to the area to make the treatment as painless and comfortable as possible.

Working within my template that I have mapped out and drawn on I will use the microblade to gently implant pigment in to the skin, filling in gaps, creating more definition improving shape and colour. Creating natural hairstroke lines that blend beautifully with your natural hair.

It normally takes up to 2 hours to complete the treatment.

Top ups

A top up is required 4-8 weeks after the first treatment. Sometimes 2-3 sessions are needed in total to complete the treatment.

Annual top ups are then needed every 12-18 months keeping any unwanted hues from appearing during the fading process. This is very important!

Aftercare

After care is so important! If not followed correctly can affect your end result and you may have to have further treatments which is chargeable.

Dry heal 5-7 days, they may become dry and flakey due to healing.

Do not pick & Never rub as this will result in colour healing unevenly and you could also risk scaring and infecting the area. Allow the wound to flake on its own.

Use after care ointment if instructed to do so, always wash hands before applying balm.

Avoid extreme heat or wet for two weeks- sweating/ sauna/ steam/swimming/hot water/ direct sunlight/ jacuzzi any form of wet or extreme heat on the brows.

THEY SAY

Nikki took great care microblading my eyebrows to perfection, explaining what she was doing all the way through and ensuring my comfort - including a nice cup of Earl Grey! She really is wonderful and I totally recommend her

Ellen Portess

I had my eyebrows done today for the first time and I absolutely love them! Nicola was so welcoming and friendly and explained everything she was doing throughout the whole process. She definitely knows her stuff, and that is shown in the end result as her work is stunning, I couldn't be happier.
I wouldn't say the microblading was painful, more irritating and a little scratchy, but totally bearable. I'm definitely looking forward to going back for my second visit and highly recommend Nicola Peacock for microblading

Olivia Grace Lofts

Nicola is lovely and makes you feel very at ease. She takes her time with the stencilling, is very clear and concise. The whole experience was fine pain wise (no worse than threading and the result I am very happy with. I wanted my eyebrows to appear fuller and more symmetrical and its definitely achieved that with my friend complimenting me today. I suggest you get booked in and save some money whilst she is building her portfolio as £100 off is a seriously amazing offer. One happy client 🙂

Rachael Emma

I had my eyebrows microbladed today and I am absolutely in love. Nikki was amazing at making sure I understood the process and made me feel at ease despite being a little nervous. I couldn't believe how mathematical it all is! Lots of eyebrow pencil and ruler action involved. Nikki being the perfectionist she is made sure we got the stencil perfect before getting to work. The application feels a bit strange to start with. I would say it's similar to threading but having the numbing cream meant it didn't hurt anywhere near as much as I thought it would. I love that Nikki got just as excited about the end as result as I did! Thank you so much Nikki, I wouldn't have gone to anyone else for this treatment! See you soon for my top up X
